  1. You can’t make a banner out of it, but TCU is now one of only 7 programs to win a CFP game. Is that worth being a national punchline in the short term and a trivia question for worst championship loss in the long term? YMMV The 1990 Cotton Bowl loss to Miami is the closest comp I have as a Texas fan, but in that season we beat OU, Arkansas, exorcised some Demons against UH, broke a 6 game losing streak to ATM, and won the SWC.
  2. Did you skip right over the three pages of pointless arguments with BO&W yesterday? Don’t challenge this board to generate off topic content.
  3. What? A scholarship isn’t enough for Michael Taaffe? Now the greedy bastard wants money too?
  4. Probably, but now the UF Collective is going to have a reputation for unfulfilled promises. This is terrible for their NIL credibility in recruiting.
  5. The rumors appear to be well-founded:
  6. That logic would apply to every player on both teams who plan to go pro next season but don’t have to. Is anyone crying over Jalen Carter or Quentin Johnston putting their first round grades on the line by playing?
  7. I mean, is that some amazing sacrifice to stick with your team for two more games when it’s in the CFP and you can showcase your talents against other high level teams?
  8. Nice to have you aboard, young man. Let’s plan on reconvening in about 4 years when I can properly start stressing out about your performance.
  9. UF’s highly ranked QB for this class has not shown up to enroll as expected. https://247sports.com/college/florida/Article/Florida-football-recruiting-Jaden-Rashada-enroll-Gators-Billy-Napier-quarterbacks-202597398/ Speculation on their message boards that NIL promises made have not been met by the Gator Collective.
  10. How is UGA’s OC Todd Monken not getting any play for better jobs? He has put their offense on a higher level with a QB who appeared to be little more than a game manager at best early last year.
  11. Nice to have the problem (at OL and secondary) of “we have more good players than starting spots.”
  12. Have you psychologically blocked out UH in 1988 with Andre Ware? The Rotten Bowl against Miami? Rout 66? A few of Mack’s efforts against OU?
  13. Fair. I have the impression that Brooks is the higher ceiling long term guy, but Holmes may be more ready this year. We could always do better, but we have frequently done much worse than what Watts gave us this year. I can’t remember him ever being the difference in a win versus a loss, unless you include his missed sack opportunity on Bryce Young. It is nice to have multiple options at CB, and hopefully the competition will make them all better.
  14. So are we done with transfers in the secondary? Starters look like: CB - Watts and Holmes S - Thompson and Catalon NB - Barron Brooks, Crawford, and Muhammad as first line depth?
  15. Hope Sark is taking notes on how to attack the 3-3-5 defense that’s given him so many problems over the years.
  16. No problem. That’s about where I came in to UT as a freshman. A couple years of keg beer, Grandy’s chicken fried steak platters, and Mr. Gatti’s pizza buffets and he’ll be 240 lbs easy by year 3.
  17. Seems like Shelby is a perfect fit for a Lincoln Riley defense.
  18. That is some Stalin-era Soviet propaganda right there. It’s a little scary how that guy can do a complete 180 in service of General Secretary Jimbo like that.
